God has not abandoned us, but He has sent Jesus to every family, every home, and every person. God is our help. No matter what your problem is or what it is that you need, God sent His Son Jesus so that you and I could receive life.
Matthew 18:20 promises that where two or three are gathered together in His name He is there in our midst. When the Word is preached, His presence is preached, and His presence fills the atmosphere around us.
In Luke 4 Jesus says, “The Spirit of the Lord is on me because He has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor, to declare freedom for the prisoners….” Mark 16 says that He sends us to do the same thing!
According to Colossians 1:27, when you are born again Christ now lives in you. So, where is the presence of God? I’m not looking forward over here, or looking backward over there, or begging for it up there. I am relishing the abundance and living in the glory of His love and His life and His Spirit in me right now. I come boldly to His throne of grace and receive what I have need of from Him. I recognize that He lives in me, I live in Him, and His presence surrounds me.
Everywhere you go, God goes, because He authorizes us as His followers to go in His name. He says to us, “I’m on a journey with you. I’ll never leave you, I’ll never forsake you, and wherever you go I am ready to go with you.”
God always has a plan for you. He will never give up on you. He gave His very best for you, and He desires for you to experience all that He has for you!
When you are born of God and carry His Spirit in you, you consider things with an eternal viewpoint. You value things that others might consider foolish. Celebrate your difference!
There is nothing like the faithfulness of God! There is nothing like committing to Him and watching the delivering power of His Name, His Word, and His Love!
“If the Lord had not been on our side…” Psalm 124:1 What marvelous words! How many times can we think back and remember how the Lord has protected us, provided for us, and even comforted us?
God is a partner in our labor working things together for us. What a pleasure it is to trust in HIM, knowing that He is working behind the scenes on our behalf!
